Question for the group: what was your first pair of Vibergs? What was your last pair?

Mine first was this pair of aged bark (smooth) captoe boots (not my photo). I purchased them on eBay for about $400, but they ended up being too small. Sold them for a loss on eBay but I have been hooked ever since...

My last was Miloh's brown horsebooty. Right size right leather.

I wouldn’t mind the retirement of the 145 Oxford if they offered stitchdown derbies. I saw these just now on Instagram and they look better than the GYW counterpart


The shell ones are stitchdown too

Nice idea smartbrother.

i started off with a pair of engineers, Ironheart x Viberg on 1005 last with black oiltan leather on cat’s paw soles. This was back in 2015.

And last year I got my last pair, second hand from Woofmang I believe, oxfords on 1035 last from Miloh Shop with mushroom chamois on Dr. Sole.

No Viberg purchase yet in 2020 but I’m craving a black boot for motorcycle rides in town.

I love this pair. I think those are dust black on 2045. Would be cool to see more derby shoes/boots on bump toe lasts.

First pair: second hand DR mahogany horsebutt on 1035



Most recent pair: .com pigment horsebutt on 2040.



The mahogany horsebutts look great! I’m hoping the Miloh Shops age similarly.

Anyone get in on this preorder? I hadn’t heard there were issues.

Curious what folks here think of the ammunition boot pattern. I think this is still the only time I've seen them use it.

Ive seen it used once before. A stockist in China did a run in natural waxed flesh


Wow good pull. Had no idea about that one. I like the ammo boot since I already have so many service boots it’s good to change it up sometimes. Think it makes it look more casual though.
